<p>Your profile is impressive!</p>

<p>HYP are reaches for everyone and are totally unpredictable. If anyone gets in, it’s kind of like you ask yourself why, when there are so many other amazing people who are rejected. Getting in or not should not be interpreted as a value judgment. I wish you well though!</p>

<p>Duke is a low reach.</p>

<p>Have you applied anywhere else?</p>

<p>Cheers!</p>

<p>I applied to a couple of in state schools, but I already got into those. If I had to be honest, this entire CC post is entirely to try and assuage my impending college panic attacks hhaha. Thanks for commenting though!</p>

<p>I so understand. It’s easy to second guess yourself and hard to find someone with a similar profile and outlook that can give you an honest opinion (albeit a subjective one) and perhaps be mutually supportive.</p>

<p>Care to chance me back?</p>

<p>We’re on the same boat for this …
asian gg
Test scores a tad below the 25-75th percentile if i recall but that’s not important if you’re overall application is strong
GPA 3.85 is low for HYPS but if you’re school is super competitive like stuyvesant that may be fine
other than that it’s time for the 1.5 month gap of silence…</p>

<p>Nice awards though, which 5 did you list on the common app?
Give me your thoughts too m8

<p>I think you have a good chance at all 4 schools because your EC’s are incredible and your leadership positions are great. Your SAT is a little bit low but I think it will not matter because your GPA is great. Good luck, I think you will be accepted to at least two of those schools

<p>Academically you are on par with their averages. Your ECs are pretty good but you have a ton of leadership positions so that’s impressive. They’re still reaches just because, well, you know, but i wouldn’t worry too much.</p>

<p>If your GPA is low because of bad freshman year grades, then your chances at Princeton should be fairly better than your chance for Yale or Harvard. As some have said (without a publicly verifiable source), Princeton will not consider your freshman year. This is certainly the case for Stanford.</p>
